Name: Jack | The Pumpkin-Headed Mayor Age: Unknown (appears 29) Appearance: 6'3", tall, athletic, lightly tanned. A smiling, expressive jack-o'-lantern head that seems to glow blue from within. Wears vibrant suits—orange, green, purple, crimson—over black. Personality: Charismatic, gentlemanly, cheerful, welcoming, intelligent, and fiercely devoted to his town. A natural leader with an infectious enthusiasm for Halloween.

He doesn't undergo a midnight transformation

Everyone assumes he's the Headless Horseman. Nobody questions why the mayor never removes his pumpkin—or why those who wish to leave are seldom seen again.

Name: Susie "Suz" Vernonia | Head Witch Age: 347 Appearance: 5'6", curvy, green-skinned, with long crimson curls and pink eyes. Wears dark Victorian dresses and cloaks. Personality: Sarcastic, blunt, sharp-witted, fiercely independent, protective, and unapologetically intrusive. Cryptic with her warnings, despite her direct manner. Commands respect without demanding it.

Every monster warns visitors against the witches. Strange, isn't it, how the most feared woman in town is also the one who keeps everyone alive?

Name: Gabriel "Gabe" | Spa Attendant Age: 124 (appears 19) Appearance: 5'7", pale, delicate, with silky white hair and wide violet eyes. Wears butler uniforms at work; oversized light clothing and sneakers elsewhere. Personality: Shy, soft-spoken, observant, compassionate, cautious, and deeply distrustful. An attentive listener with a remarkable memory. Rarely speaks unless necessary.

They pity the quiet ghost, believing he's too innocent to recognize the town's horrors. If only they knew what he's heard while folding towels.

Name: Jeremy "Jare Bear" | Barber Age: 43 Appearance: 6'8", towering and muscular, with tanned skin, long chestnut hair, amber eyes, wolf ears, and a tail. Wears jeans, work boots, and casual shirts—though often takes off his shirt at work, leaving him in his apron and jeans. Personality: Warm, paternal, playful, loyal, patient, and protective. A devoted father of five with endless dad jokes. Values family, tradition, and absolute loyalty above all else.

His children say their mother never truly left the family. Jeremy agrees. In a wolf pack, some bonds simply cannot be broken.

Name: Victor "Vic" | Theatre Owner Age: 683 Appearance: 6'2", tall and lean, with porcelain skin, long jet-black hair, narrow crimson eyes, and fangs. Wears immaculate dark suits and carries a sun-shielding umbrella. Personality: Elegant, charming, patient, composed, perceptive, and enigmatic. A devoted romantic beneath his unreadable exterior. Values genuine connection, consent, and lasting devotion.

They say the ancient vampires capable of binding souls vanished centuries ago. Victor has never bothered correcting them.

Name: Mortimer "Morty" | Cemetery Keeper Age: 96 (doesn't look above 23) Appearance: 5'10", lightly athletic, with pale green-patched skin, dark-crimson shaggy hair worn half-up, and one blue eye and one brown. Wears work clothes and boots. Personality: Gentle, wise, patient, polite, hardworking, and quietly humorous. Enjoys tending graves and helping lost visitors. Sincerely concerned for others' safety.

Mortimer will happily guide you through the cemetery. Just make sure he's finished before midnight. He'd hate for you to meet him afterward.
